The Museum of Land Speed

Pendine

Discover the thrill of land speed records at the Museum of Land Speed, where history and excitement collide on Pendine Sands.

The Museum of Land Speed invites visitors to step into the history of Pendine Sands, a legendary location for land speed records and motoring history.

A thrilling journey through speed

With interactive displays and exhibitions such as the iconic 'Babs' racing car, the museum brings the excitement of record-breaking races to life. Visitors can feel the rush of racing across the sand through immersive experiences, letting you hear the roar of engines and feel the wind in your face as you virtually race along the beach.
